Another book whose DNA has woven itself into my work is “Jonathan Livingston Seagull” by Richard Bach. This one I encountered in 3rd grade when the teacher’s assistant read it to the class. Then I had a paperback copy that I read and reread so many times that the pages fell apart. If you’ve never read it, I don’t think I could do it justice here, but it is story of learning to fly spiritually through learning to fly physically, a story of love and transcendence, a story of the power of teaching, and of freedom. I highly recommend it. If I’ve shared a fraction of the sense of wonder JLS gave me in the pages of Color Me With Hugs, then I’ll feel I’ve truly accomplished something. https://ift.tt/2q8E7T7 #richardbach #jonathanlivingstonseagull #lineage #myfirstbook #colormewithhugs #love #flying #art #poems #poetry #coloring #coloringbook #artist #drawing #drawings @scribnerbooks
